Login to certain page if coming from a specific page

[toyt78]

I have login page for two pages. I am trying to get it to go to one page if it is at a certain page (view.cfm) and for all other pages it comes from it should go to the main page (index.cfm).

I tried conditions based on referer page but it wont work and always seems to go to the index.cfm page.
Please advise.

<CFSET Session.Auth ='True'>                              
<CFSET Session.Admin = Form.Username>                            
<cfset session.AA = ListFirst(ListLast(cgi.http_referer,"/\"),"")> 
<cfset session.BB = ListFirst(ListLast(cgi.http_referer,"?"))>	
<cfif session.AA eq "view.cfm">
	<CFLOCATION url='editPage.cfm?BB'>	
<cfelse>
	<CFLOCATION url='index.cfm'>	
</cfif>

Tried it without the session.AA and session.BB (using just variables "AA" and "BB") and it still wont work.
I also tried cgi.path_info for trying to get last page but it wont work on my browsers.

Do a dump of session.AA and confirm that it is indeed "view.cfm"

Well I should add the usual caveat about using the referrer and how unreliable it can be - it can be blocked by your browser, plugins, proxies etc. Can you not simply have maybe a form field on each page indicating what page it is then after your authentication you can check this field to determine where to go to after. Unless I've missed something?
